Pigs & Kids know... Home is where the FOOD is!


Hi Reader,

"Your pigs are out!"

When our neighbor's daughter shouted through our screen door, I didn't even jump.

Chasing animals back home is what our kids grow up doing.

The animals only want one thing too.

To go home!

Growing up on my family's farm in Pennsylvania, I never would have pictured the life I live at Willow Haven farm. As a kid I spent summers in our large family garden we called, “The Truck Patch”. I helped mom every summer, picking beans, weeding, and cutting fruit and vegetables for the hundreds of jars of canned and frozen produce we put up. Now I spends less time out in the field and more time in the kitchen doing the same preserving for my own farm family. Farmer Reuben values my many hours doing much of the behind the scenes marketing, writing emails to cultivate customers and capturing the farm story each week. I'm always learning along the way in my quest to improve the farm experience for each of her current and future farm members in our 500+ member, year-round customized farm box delivery program. Reading our stories will connect you with your food in a way you never experienced before. Someday soon you will want to fit local food into your life and we'll be here to help you.

You can reintroduce nutrient-dense animal products later, like Bone...

I mentioned in our Farm Member Chat Group that I made Beef Jerky this week with our own ground beef. Calls for the recipe came quickly! Since we are traveling this weekend, I'm sharing the recipe and a list of our tried and true travel foods. Grass fed Ground Beef Jerky Recipe & More We Are Open at Willow...

Hi Reader, Even my jaw dropped. Did I forget or was this info SO SHOCKING that it's hard to believe? The head farmer at Rodale spoke at a Health Symposium for medical professionals in July. Reuben and I were the only other farmer attendees. When talking about food and health to the doctors, nurses, and students, he chose to make sure they knew that organic food is the only way to eat for health and sustainability. Over 70 crops are sprayed directly with glyphosate, most immediately before...
